| SAXON PREPARE TO DELIVER THEIR LATEST ALBUM
SACRIFICE, ON TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 26TH, 2013 With a storming new stomp in their boots and a renewed, lithe swagger to their legendary sound, Saxon will release “Sacrifice”, on Tuesday, February 26th, 2013 through UDR. Taking a sharper, re-invigorated approach to the production, on this, their 20th album, Saxon have produced 10 of their strongest, heaviest and most inspired songs for many-a-year, and a more than worthy successor to their last album “A Call To Arms”. “Less tricks, more power!” roars frontman and founding father Biff Byford, “my brief to the band was to be raw, be real and not be afraid to look back at the old classic material for inspiration.” The album was recorded at LS Studios in Yorkshire and was produced by Byford with Andy Sneap mixing and engineering by Jacky Lehmann. It fairly bristles with muscular metallic intent, Paul Quinn’s and Doug Scarratt’s guitar work the best it’s ever been, while Biff’s vocals sound fresher and livelier. The songwriting too harks back to a classic era in Saxon’s history, with the likes of ‘Warriors Of The Road’, ‘Wheels Of Terror’ and ‘Stand Up And Fight’ evoking the halcyon days of yore with a contemporary twist, the classic Saxon sound absorbing the snarl, ferocity and attitude of contemporary bands (and fans) such as Megadeth, as evidenced by the crunching title cut ‘Sacrifice’. “It’s certainly been done from a more early ‘80s thrashier perspective,” explains Biff, “and it’s not just guitars bashing away willy-nilly, they’ve got a fresh drive, purpose and perspective.” Besides the new material, Saxon will also be adding some unique recordings of revisited classic to certain formats of the release, also produced by Byford and mastered by Andy Sneap, including an orchestrated version of ‘Crusader’ and an acoustic version of ‘Frozen Rainbow’. “From the songs to the production, I wanted to focus on the raw aspects which made us great in the first place,” concludes Biff, “And living in that rawness, combined with some great classic Saxon-songwriting, has in my opinion made Saxon fresher than ever.” Confirmed track listing: 01. Procession 02. Sacrifice 03. Made In Belfast 04. Warriors Of The Road 05. Guardians Of The Tomb 06. Stand Up And Fight 07. Walking The Steel 08. Night Of The Wolf 09. Wheels Of Terror 10.

Blackmoore's Night to release A Knight In New York Ritchie Blackmore’s musical career is
branded by an uncompromising faithfulness to his own musical ideals: he
already distinguished himself as an ambitioned rock musician in Deep
Purple and Rainbow. For the past 15 years, Blackmore‘s Night has shown a
marked contrast to the two previously successful bands, making him one
of the few musicians who has successfully formed and performed in three
different musical genres. With “A Knight In York“, the third Blackmore’s
Night DVD release, Ritchie, Candice Night and their band of minstrels
take their devoted audience on a musical journey through the ages. |

| HEAVY METAL THUNDER – THE MOVIE SAXON TO RELEASE “HEAVY METAL THUNDER – THE MOVIE” ON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 20TH, 2012 The silver eagle has finally landed for audiences worldwide! After enjoying a limited “Fan Club Only” UK release, Heavy Metal Thunder – The Movie, Saxon’s wonderfully unfiltered and intimate account of their ascent to the upper echalons of heavy metal, will finally enjoy an international release this December. The double-disc set features the soon-to-be-celebrated story of Saxon, while the second disc is packed with bonus features including a full-length performance (on St. George’s Day) from April 23rd, 2008. Rivetingly honest, and including the frank memories of every musician who has played in the band, Heavy Metal Thunder – The Movie pieces together the earliest incarnations of Saxon, from frontman Biff Byford’s teenage years in the coalmines of Yorkshire and Son Of A Bitch (the first incarnation of Saxon) all the way through to top 10 hits and world tours. “Our music was more sort of machinery banging together, wheels turning, machines making noise,” says Biff of those early, industrial days, “It’s what Heavy Metal is all about. Heavy Metal is all about hard, big sounds bashing your skull in. I used to work in factories where big machinery made lot of noise and I used to sing along to the noises they made.” It is a documentary which looks for all the world as though it’s a
superbly crafted script, as much a tale of pure, honest, working class
triumph as just another Rock n’ Roll story. Heavy Metal Thunder – The
Movie shows every facet of Saxon on their journey without once diluting
the true characters who make up the band. “We basically played every
dump and shithole that there is in England over a period, probably just
short of eight years,” laughs Biff. “You know classic cliché of transit
van, up and down and we used to play more or less every night. One gig
might be a good paying gig and the other one might be no money or ten
quid but it was an obsession, you had to play every day.” These
wonderfully naïve young men sought nothing more than a great gig, a good
time and maybe a nice girl, before suddenly finding themselves on tour
in the US, exposed to the sorts of things which (quite frankly) Barnsley
simply didn’t offer in 1980. And from that point, Heavy Metal Thunder –
The Movie, takes the viewer on a journey on a Rock n’ Roller of a
journey encompassing it all from triumphs to tears to tea-bags and
beyond. Heavy Metal Thunder – The Movie will entertain, engage and charm fans
and non-fans alike. That’s a truth as honest as the film itself… |
